yozhao101 4487a962e3 [memory_checker] Do not check memory usage of containers which are not created (#11129)
Signed-off-by: Yong Zhao yozhao@microsoft.com

Why I did it
This PR aims to fix an issue (#10088) by enhancing the script memory_checker.

Specifically, if container is not created successfully during device is booted/rebooted, then memory_checker do not need check its memory usage.

How I did it
In the script memory_checker, a function is added to get names of running containers. If the specified container name is not in current running container list, then this script will exit without checking its memory usage.

How to verify it
I tested on a lab device by following the steps:

Stops telemetry container with command sudo systemctl stop telemetry.service

Removes telemetry container with command docker rm telemetry

Checks whether the script memory_checker ran by Monit will generate the syslog message saying it will exit without checking memory usage of telemetry.

memory_checker
This script is part of the feature which will restart the container if memory
usage of it is larger than the threshold value.
This script is used to check the memory usage of specified cotnainer and
is intended to be run by Monit. It will write an alerting message into
syslog if memory usage of the container is larger than the threshold value for X
times within Y cycles/minutes. Note that if print(...) statement in this script
was executed, the string in it will be appended to Monit syslog messages.
The following is an example in Monit configuration file to show how Monit will run
this script:
check program container_memory_<container_name> with path "/usr/bin/memory_checker <container_name> <threshold_value>"
if status == 3 for X times within Y cycles exec "/usr/bin/restart_service <container_name>"
